A dataset of direct observations of sea ice drift and waves in ice

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
AbstractVariability in sea ice conditions, combined with strong couplings to the atmosphere and the ocean, lead to a broad range of complex sea ice dynamics. Morein-situmeasurements are needed to better identify the phenomena and mechanisms that govern sea ice growth, drift, and breakup.

On the Drift Ice of the Sea of Okhotsk

open access: bronzeThe Quaternary Research (Daiyonki-Kenkyu), 1974
In this paper, the outline of the meteorologic and the oceanographic investigation on the drift ice formation in the Sea of Okhotsk is given.The main factor which affects the ice formation in the Sea of Okhotsk is the existence of a thin mixing layer of very low salinity less than 100m in thickness on the surface of the Sea.The origin of this low ...

The Drift of Ice Island WH-5

open access: bronzeARCTIC, 1966
Summarizes the final documentation of this drift from its calving from Ward Hunt Ice Shelf, North Ellesmere Island, winter 1961-62 until sightings of the remaining fragments in waters of Labrador and Newfoundland, summer 1964. The drift south from the Arctic Ocean indicates that the southward water transport through Nares Strait is discontinuous and ...

Improving Multiyear Sea Ice Concentration Estimates with Sea Ice Drift [PDF]

open access: goldRemote Sensing, 2016
Multiyear ice (MYI) concentration can be retrieved from passive or active microwave remote sensing observations. One of the algorithms that combines both observations is the Environmental Canada Ice Concentration Extractor (ECICE). However, factors such as ridging, snow wetness and metamorphism can cause significant changes in brightness temperature ...

Interannual variability in Transpolar Drift summer sea ice thickness and potential impact of Atlantification [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
Changes in Arctic sea ice thickness are the result of complex interactions of the dynamic and variable ice cover with atmosphere and ocean. Most of the sea ice exiting the Arctic Ocean does so through Fram Strait, which is why long-term measurements of ...

Evaluation of Arctic sea ice drift and its dependency on near-surface wind and sea ice conditions in the coupled regional climate model HIRHAM–NAOSIM [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
We examine the simulated Arctic sea ice drift speed for the period 2003–2014 in the coupled Arctic regional climate model HIRHAM–NAOSIM 2.0. In particular, we evaluate the dependency of the drift speed on the near-surface wind speed and sea ice ...

Assessing CMIP6 simulations of Arctic sea ice drift: Role of near-surface wind and surface ocean current in model performance

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research, 2023
Sea ice drift is a critical parameter for understanding the rapid changes in Arctic sea ice. Since the release of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6), there has been a lack of quantitative analysis regarding CMIP6's simulation of ...

A new state-dependent parameterization for the free drift of sea ice [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2022
Free-drift estimates of sea ice motion are necessary to produce a seamless observational record combining buoy and satellite-derived sea ice motion vectors.

Evaluation of Arctic Sea Ice Drift Products Based on FY-3, HY-2, AMSR2, and SSMIS Radiometer Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Different radiometer sensors have different frequencies, spatial resolutions, and time resolutions, which lead to inconsistencies in ice drift products retrieved by radiometer sensors.
